Wow, how lovely! I see the bear reference :). Also, you look way too happy to be out in this cold weather haha. Must be the nature like you said.

I used to live along the river lea in Hackney, so I was always walking along the canals there. I've witnessed a few of these locks being opened and closed, and I find the rushing water a quite therapeutic actually. I've even been on a narrow boat once, invited on by total strangers. The attempted a pretty large lock with the water about 2-3 meters high. The boat got flooded because we were too close to the doors and they opened too quickly or something. I have a video of it somewhere :)

Haha, that's funny! I'd love to see that video. Something must have gone terribly wrong. I bet they were canalboat renters. I'm afraid of them during summer and bank holidays.

Once we were moored up and I saw a boat coming towards ours at full speed doing a perfect zig-zag pattern. I alerted Cameron quickly so he could go out push the oncoming boat away as the teenager came crashing into ours.
Luckily she didn't cause too much damage.


Yes, it's quite normal for other narrowboaters to invite you in for a tour or coffee.
One morning I was heading to yoga in the nearby park and I got cornered by a man who was an Olympian Talker. I could not get away. Two hours went by and I just had to forget the yoga. He was a really nice guy and I didn't want to be rude.🤣

Yes, it has to be my environment why I'm happy and smiling in the cold. I didn't know that it was possible for me to do such🤣
